Autumn Week 6 

What an exciting week! On Wednesday, the children met an Olympic BMX athlete who won bonze in the Tokyo Olympics in 2020. He demonstrated a range of tricks including jumping over Mrs Hards! Each year group was given the opportunity to hold his Olympic Medal and ask him questions during our Q+A session. This presentation was all about resilience and the power of believing in your dreams. 

In History, we had the opportunity to see and hold an inactive WW1 rifle. The children were taught about the process of manufacturing and why it proved to be so popular; an impressive 17 million Lea-Enfield rifles made during WW1 and II.

Autumn Week 4 

A huge congratulations to Frankie for receiving the Headteacher's award for his kindness and respect towards others. 

We have had a busy week being historians, scientists, mathematicians and authors!  In science, we explored the anatomy of the heart through playdough.   In history, we have been learning about the trenches used in the First World War.  In Maths we completed our unit on place value and as authors we continued our Flashback writing.

In preparation for Harvest Festival, we have been learning our Year 6 song - All Things Bright and Beautiful.  We are looking forward to inviting our Year 6 parents to the church.

Autumn Week 3

A huge congratulations to Conor for receiving the headteacher's award this week for his though provoking questioning during History. 

In English this week, we have begun our flashback narrative which focuses on a WW1 flashback. The class have been using their knowledge from our history lessons to fuel their creativity with their writing. 

In science, we have been looking at the circulatory system. This lesson involved the children going on the journey of a red blood cell which we recreated on the playground using chalk. 

 

Autumn Week 2

A huge congratulations to Phyllis for receiving the Headteacher's award for being an amazing role model for Y6! 

In science this week, we have been learning about the components of blood. We explored this by creating our own blood sample including; plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. 

Challenge - can you complete this cloze procedure which details the function of the 4 components of blood?

Autumn Week 1 

A great first week in Falcon Class! A huge congratulations to Christopher for being awarded the headteacher's award for his positive attitude to learning. 

This week we have started our Pop Art unit, the class have really enjoyed this and showed great resilience with their painting. We have also been inspired by a fellow student from Kite Class to do our own bouncy egg experiment - we will be looking forward to the results on Monday. In Maths, we have been measuring the circumference of our heads, the length of our hands, feet and height. We will be remeasuring in July 2025 to see how much we have grown.
